Received ...

The art journals are really moving, yayyy☺  I received a page for Mary (theme: Fairy Tales). A second AJ was delivered; theme is: Bygone Era, so it is Beth's AJ. I'm so glad to have an art journal of this round robin again. Beth's art journal is just sooo beautiful! It is so nice to watch impressions of the good old time. Awesome, really awesome.

Artist: Beth Gould

 After much thought, I decided the theme for my journal would be "Bygone Eras". I have always been attracted to things that are old. I'm fascinated with the way other generations have lived their lives; the way they dress; their hair styles, furnishings, and family pictures.
  This will be a fun and creative journey. It is a wondrous present to receive and give artwork. The opportunity to have other artists' interpretation is a gift I will truly hold dear.

 My cover is made of leather. I purchased a black leather skirt at a thrift shop. I ran it through the washer several times to get the worn look. Then, used several inks to get it to the color I was looking for.
